Why This Gnocchi Soup Is So Good
This is a re-make of an old recipe that was inspired by a friend and what I love about this soup is, well, there are several things.
How Do You Make Gnocchi?
To me, crockpot chicken gnocchi soup means something that can be quickly and easily tossed together and tastes best when using good, quality ingredients. If I don’t just happen to have some fresh homemade gnocchi laying around (which hello, like, NEVER HAPPENS, because homemade gnocchi disappears in five seconds flat around here), then store-bought gnocchi it is. Those savory fluffy little bites of airy perfection cook up just right when stirred in at the end of cook time for this soup.
Other Ingredients You’ll Need For This Soup
We’ve already covered the ever-convenient storebought gnocchi, but here’s what else you need to make this soup happen:
Chicken Mirepoix (carrots, celery, onion) Seasonings Chicken broth Evaporated milk (trust me) Garlic Spinach And BACON (yes, yes, yes)
How To Make Chicken Gnocchi Soup
There are only three steps here. THREE. You can do this. So easy, so good. Serve it with a delicious little green salad and you’re in dinner business.
Perfect For a Meal Delivery
I could totally see this chicken gnocchi soup being a great bring-to-a-new-mom-or-sick-friend type of meal. It’s easy to throw together, it’s got that basic-yummy flavor that families love, there’s some redeeming vegetables in with all that creamy awesomeness, it saves well in the fridge or freezer… win, win, win, all around. I have brought it to a few friends with a loaf of the Miracle No-Knead Bread and the bread + the chicken gnocchi soup combo get rave reviews every time. Match made in heaven, I’d say. This recipe was adapted from Jessica’s version – she introduced me to the genius of using evaporated milk!
